Abstract

L'invention concerne les convertisseurs d'énergie électrique. Un convertisseur d'énergie électrique comprend essentiellement un module de commande 1, des modules de générateur d'impulsions 2 1 , 22 ... 2n , et un réseau de couplage 3 qui attaque une charge 4. Les différents modules de générateur d'impulsions sont conçus de façon qu'une panne d'un module n'affecte pas le fonctionnement des autres et n'ait qu'une influence mineure sur le fonctionnement de l'ensemble. Application aux émetteurs haute fréquence.The invention relates to converters of electrical energy. An electrical energy converter essentially comprises a control module 1, pulse generator modules 2 1, 22 ... 2n, and a coupling network 3 which drives a load 4. The various pulse generator modules are designed so that a failure of one module does not affect the operation of the others and has only a minor influence on the operation of the assembly. Application to high frequency transmitters.
